McCain ‘Bold’ Solutions

To top off his “Health Care Week” John McCain has released an ad entitled “Bold Solutions.” Watch it:

Here’s a little reminder of what those “bold solutions” entail:

• Boldly leave 56 million people with pre-existing conditions vulnerable in the private market
• Boldly threaten coverage for 158 million workers
• Boldly let insurance companies refuse coverage to folks with diabetes, heart disease, cancer, or dangerous jobs
• Boldly dole out a $2 billion tax cut for big insurance companies
• Boldly raise taxes on some families who buy health insurance
• Boldly propose a plan that costs $3.6 trillion over 10 years, over double what Clinton’s or Obama’s cost
• Boldly rely on expensive, debunked methods to only partially cover the poor and uninsured
• Boldly slash funding for hospitals that serve the uninsured without a plan for universal coverage
• Boldly deny coverage to a 9-year-old child with a cleft palate
